<p>Yes unfortunately, 99.99% of Religion as practiced, is harmful. And it simply infuriates Atheist and Agnostics and rightfully so.</p>

<p>I find it frightening that over 55% of doctors surveyed said that their religious beliefs influence their practice. In fact, I find it rather curious that people who have received a college education with a strong emphasis in the sciences still somehow manage to retain their belief.</p>

<p>I'm not against people believing in a god or gods, however, I do believe that religion and science are mutually exclusive and incompatible. Notice I say religion, not spirituality. By religion, I'm referring to dogmatic beliefs, as in the kind that cause people to refuse medical treatment for their children because it's up to god whether the child lives or dies. People like that piss me off, because in most cases, the children could have lived had they sought proper medical treatment. The kind of dogmatic beliefs that cause needless death and suffering are what I'm referring to here.</p> One of Dr. Neil Degrasse Tyso…tag:www.thinkatheist.com,2011-07-05:1982180:Comment:7298542011-07-05T03:41:52.885ZMichaelhttp://www.thinkatheist.com/profile/Michael456

Can you verify that assertion with data? I find it incredibly hard to believe that 40 percent of the most renowned scientists are Christian. That's a very large percentage. Can you steer me towards some peer reviewed articles that could verify your claim?<br/>

Everyone that comes to Christ is coming from a sinful life no matter who you are. And Christian is only a title. So called Christians fill the ranks of lost souls just as well as any one else. What matter's is the way of life. For sure many atheist will be saved by virtual of their humanity and were able to assist one of His little ones.

<p>Through history things we do not understand we choose god as an answer. The afterlife is something all religions had created to find a purpose of being good. Morality and region are separate. Because one is atheist it does not mean one is immoral. In fact being an atheist and being moral has more merit, because there in no fear from god.
